As others have said complete WOKE nonsense calling this off.
explain how this is woke? does it just mean that you don't agree with it? Woke is political liberality and left wing attitudes regarding discrimination. Not generally used to describe a bit of bad weather.

I think we all know what "woke" REALLY means by now.
And if you don't then I'm sure someone will be along to tell us - again! - soon enough .........

Any lifers remember Brighton away in the early 70's? Mick Kelly bullet header and players like Keith Peacock going through massive puddles and mud... Great football. Today though football is too pampered.
We found a cracking pub (Goffs Manor) and a superb lunch - walked in ground at exact time it was called off - very poor by Ref to leave it until then - I’m actually not that fussed, as watching football in these conditions is no fun at all
Remember Yeovil?
Me and a mate still talk about that game when we used to go to Away Games
Has legendary status that match
That open end behind the goal where we were standing, took the full brunt of the wind driven deluge. But we all sang on.
Except those who took refuge in the C.L I.T coach at half time 🙃
Browny Just sad the ref should call it off now. Rain expected for another hour. The ball couldn't even roll a 15 yard pass it just stopped in its track.
For me with our midfield maestro's being what they are, it should be off. Last thing we war is any injuries from getting boots stuck in the mud.
I'd love there to be a game on, what with our current run, but it needs to be safe.
Such a shame for all those that have travelled in numbers and many probably won't make the inevitable evening kick off, if postponed.
And if one of our players tore a cruciate ligament, because his boot got stuck in the pitch, and was out for the rest of the season, you'd all moan at the ref for not calling the game off.
As Airman says, it's the safety of the officials and players that are the defining metric, not whether the supporters have been put out.
Especially if you think how much insurance is being payed for some footballers, in case of injury.

You'd think our manager would agree then wouldn't you?

it doesn't appear you do. It may be a crap decision made too late but I question whether the reason was to prevent offending peoples sensibilities, because thats what they did, they offended a lot of peoples feelings.
Feel sorry for those that travelled as calling a game off that late is pathetic, and it's also disappointing as we're on a good run and we clearly wanted to play the game.
On the plus side though it should mean that we're fresh and ready to go on Saturday against a Reading side who will be playing their 5th game in 14 days.

I think you may be missing the "in" Charlton Life joke.

Surely you start the match & then abandon it if needs be.
Neither of which should make a difference on whether or not the pitch was safe to start the game.
Anyway, it is what it is.

Barnsley Wrexham for me. Recommend it.
